Bath re-enamelling in Sibton without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we’re called out for in Sibton
Often the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
Sibton questions
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Most clients in Sibton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sibton
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
